This prestigious society has now been functioning for more than nine decades and during the past year its members have again completed prominent scientific activities. Instead of having a regular annual meeting we arranged a scientific symposium and business meeting at the 21stIFOS ENT World Congress, which was very successfully arranged in Paris during June 24-28, 2017 by the IFOS Board and the French ENT Society.

Our next annual meeting will be arranged in Beijing during September 16-19, 2018 by our new President Weining Huang and Vice President Shiming Yang and the Chinese group. The arrangements have my wholehearted support and I encourage you all to visit the congress website and register for the meeting.

Attached you will find the Annual Report for 2017, the Treasurer’s Report and a collection of photos from the Annual Meeting and the Members’ Lunch.

This is the announcement of CORLAS Annual Meeting 2018 in Beijing. I am pleased to inform you that the website has been opened (www.collegium2018.com.cn). We sincerely invite you to the meeting and we believe that you will have a wonderful and memorable experience.

Following the spirit of Collegium, we have done our best to prepare every detail of the meeting to make sure that we could offer a perfect platform to promote our friendship and share scientific experience in the field of Otorhinolaryngology.

We have carefully arranged tours and dinners, providing a good chance to take a close look at Chinese culture and know more about China. In aspect of tours, you will visit several World Heritage Sites and some of the most representative attractions. In aspect of dinners, you will experience different Chinese elements in every evening of the meeting. We believe that it will be a most unique experience.

Dear CORLAS members
Dear friends and colleagues
The Swiss group invites you to Bern, the capital city of Switzerland, where the CORLAS meeting 2019 will take place between August 25 and August 28. The meeting is an ideal occasion to meet colleagues and friends from all over the world, to exchange new ideas and to present your latest findings to an interested and knowledgeable audience. Besides the scientific part of the meeting, networking will be facilitated with memorable social events.
For a capital, Bern is a relatively small city, but it is situated beautifully at the Aare river and in full sight of the Alps, which are less than an hour’s drive away. Visit www.bern.com/en/ for a first glimpse of what the city has to offer!
The venue has been chosen carefully for this event. At the Kursaal Bern www.kursaal-bern.ch, an event of high quality is guaranteed, while maintaining a spectacular view over the city and the nearby Alps. A Hotel is integrated into the conference center. The city center is within walking distance, as are a number of additional hotels in offering different price ranges.

The 90th anniversary of our society was celebrated in Bordeaux, France on August 28-31, 2016. This was the third time for CORLAS Annual Meeting to be organized in Bordeaux. The meeting was wonderfully planned and hosted by our President René Dauman with the help of his wife Catherine and Vice President Olivier Sterkers, and with the support of the French CORLAS group. The record performance in terms of participants was achieved as more than 300 people attended the meeting. Bordeaux offered us a great week of high-class scientific programme and truly attractive social activities, which will be described in this report together with a summary on other CORLAS activities during 2016. Attached you will find the Treasurer’s report and a collection of photos from the Annual Meeting, Social Programme and Post Congress Tour.
